Re: Closed Cockpits in F1

I think I had a snow sled that looked like that Harsha - a nice design exercise, but make it for slot cars and not formula racing.

Here's a similar post from a thread following Danny's death, an ugly rendering of an enclosed "formula" car.
Is there an article asking F1 drivers what they think? Would like to know.

What I see as potential trouble are the very sharp/flat noses on the current F1 cars, I would not want to be hit broadside (say, right at my neck) by one...shudder...
